Has the miserable winter weather got you down? This weekend, you can find the perfect antidote, when the Home Builders Association of Columbia hosts its 50th annual Mid-Missouri Home & Lifestyle Expo at the Hearnes Center in Columbia.

The 2010 Mid-Missouri Home & Lifestyle Expo will draw exhibitors from all over the area, HBA Executive Director Annie Pope said.

Nearly 100 exhibitors will assemble on Friday, Saturday and Sunday to help homeowners and prospective homeowners create their perfect living environments.

Admission is $5 for adults; free for children under 12.

The hours for the Home & Lifestyle Expo are Friday, 2-8 p.m.; Saturday, 10 a.m. to 8 p.m.; and Sunday, 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.

Come meet The Mad Hungarian

Younger St. Louis Cardinals fans know him as a television broadcaster, but older baseball fans will remember Al “The Mad Hungarian” Hrabosky as a fastball-throwing former relief pitcher who pitched eight years for the Cardinals and who helped the Royals win a Western Division Championship in 1978.

Hrabosky, will sign autographs at the 2010 Mid-Missouri Home & Lifestyle Expo on Saturday. Look for him at the Helitech Waterproofing and Structural Repair booth.

Hrabosky retired from pitching in 1982. He currently works as the color broadcaster on FSN Midwest for regular-season St. Louis Cardinal games.
